On wiki pages, it is common to see a Table of Contents. A TOC is used to organize what is often a lot of information on one big page. You see them on almost every page in Wikipedia.

Breaking your page into different sections with different headers is very helpful to readers, and a Table of Contents helps the readers even further by giving them an active tool that allows them to jump to a particular section on the page.In order for the TOC widget to work in Wikispaces, you have to format the text you want listed as a "Heading." You can embed a "normal" TOC or a "flat" TOC. Click on the Widget button on the Edit toolbar, select Table of Contents, and then play around with the options to see what works best.




This is an example of what a normal TOC looks like. It includes links to text formated as "Heading 2" as well as "Heading 1."
